Comment(by Jehanne):

 I used to do this; it was a way of keeping my relay up and running while
 using the Tor-modified version of Firefox, which I was lead to believe was
 superior to the standard Firefox build.  I simply copied a shortcut of the
 tbb-firefox.exe icon to my desktop.  I am not sure why this was such a
 "big deal" or why you needed disabled this ability.
